no lunch; I wasn't hungry til about 3.

Then I had a burrito with rice, black beans, beef, guacamole and salsa. And a coke. I was really hungry at that point! I shoulda had an apple earlier.

I had a bit of leftover spinach calzone with tomato sauce for a late snack. And most of a big bottle of Pellegrino sparkly water. I love that stuff! And a bit more of that greek yogurt.

next time: Eat More Fruit!

Girl, we are so alike when it comes to food.

And drinks for that matter.

No.

I'll fess up on yesterday.

B: oatmeal with raisins, sunflower seeds & coconut on top (my new favorite way to eat oatmeal!). 1/4 of a cantaloupe.
Snack: 2/3 of an everything bagel with peanut butter & jelly. (I simply can not resist peanut butter, even when I'm not hungry.

)
Lunch: This is why the day *really* went awry. Jeff & I went to Papa Haydn's, a great restaurant in town, after a morning meeting. After working our way through 2 breadbaskets

of the yummiest french bread with this fabulous pepper butter, I then ate a sandwich comprised of focaccia, smoked turkey, applewood bacon, avocado, gorgonzola, lettuce, tomato & mustard. With a side of cucumber salad. And a pop. At least the pop was a diet. (Like that helps...)

I was soooooo full that I couldn't even think about food until late in the evening, when I had a small green salad with balsamic vinaigrette. Then, Jeff whipped out the chocolate/peanut butter dessert he took home from Papa Haydn's and I somehow managed to limit myself to just 3 bites. Then I had some grapes. I don't know why. I wasn't hungry.

So, Oak, there you have it. A food disaster post.

Susan
